Our market has the King Crab Legs at $16.99 lb, or Clusters for $10.99 lb.

I Googled "Clusters" sounds like a smaller Golden or Brown Crab? Any difference in taste :shrug:

I doubt it but not a crab leg expert by any means.

We prefer snow crab over king crab.

The snow crab is sold by clusters that may be what they are refering to.

I preface this by saying I dont care for seafood.

If I go to Red Lobster I may get steak.

Here is the deal. King crab have to be cracked open and I dont like to work for food.

You only get a little meat for all the work.

I think I could eat 2 lbs of King crab

I dont think I ever tried it though.

try both...
steam them...bright red/orange pull them
they are tasty..

but not even close to these guys..

You will find the King Crab taste sweeter then the clusters
these are the kings

Here is the clusters this a snow crab

If your in maine you might be able to find the Rock Crab which is this guy every thing except the shell obviously and the inside is edible to me it all tasty this involves a lot of work where as the King and the cluster aren't as much work.

We ended up with the King Crab Legs, some were really good and some real salty.

Probably wouldn't get them again, you can't beat Maine Lobster :0008
